bippo Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Nina Simone... My mum is a huge fan and named me after her (even though it was her stage name). But then again, who wants to be called Eunice?! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slice Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I still have the original "In the year 25 25" single, it's under the stairs in a box with loads of other old records and I don't have a record player any more, was going to bin them but it was bought for me by someone I remember fondly.

Ttaskmaster Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Is Nina Simone really a One-Hit-Wonder, though? "Feelin' Good" and "I Put A Spell On You" seem to get played and covered all over the place... Tubeway Army were apparently a 1HW, but only because they changed to reflect Gary Numan as a solo career. Still like their stuff, though. MARRS with Pump Up The Volume is pretty memorable.
